(Mail Client Server) e-mail client is also used to refer to any agent acting as a client toward an e-mail server,
Incoming server can refer to the mail server your mail client accesses for email.
An email message is created using a mail client program. This program then sends the message to a server. The server then forwards the message to the recipient's email server, where the message is then supplied to the recipient's email client. It's delivered using a server architectureBy L.S.
A server is a database--on a server. The client is: a person on a PC connected to the server via odbc querying the database. A database is only an app on the server. You can have a domain controller, a mail server, a nat server, web hosting... doesnt matter whats on it. And the client wouldn't really be person, a person is referred to as a user. A client is generally the computer. So what is client server networking? Its when you have perhaps 4 clients all using the server for something. The server kinda being like a master. But usually most clients will look to the server for their network settings (DHCP), and perhaps NAT etc..... But like the above person mentioned you can have database's on your server. But your not just limited to database's, you can have mail server's, web servers, app server etc....

AnswerA Post Office Protocol (POP) mail server is a server that complies with the RFC standard 1939. Here is a basic run down.The Post Office Protocol - Version 3 (POP3) is intended to permit a workstation to dynamically access a maildrop on a server host in a useful fashion. Usually, this means that the POP3 protocol is used to allow a workstation to retrieve mail that the server is holding for it.POP3 is not intended to provide extensive manipulation operations of mail on the server; normally, mail is downloaded and then deleted. A more advanced (and complex) protocol, IMAP4, is discussed in [RFC1730].AnswerA POP mail server (or simply "POP server") is the most common form of incoming email server. Basically, the POP server is what receives the email and is almost always used with an SMTP server, which is the outgoing server. The best way to find out the address of your POP server is to ask the company who is providing your email service. You will need to know this information if you are planning to set up an email client such as Thunderbird, Outlook, or Eudora to access your email. AnswerPOP (Post Office Protocol) mail client programs (e.g., Eudora, Netscape Communicator, Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft Outlook) allow you to retrieve your e-mail from the central server to your local computer. When someone sends you an e-mail message, the message is received, processed and stored in your mail file on the central mail server (for most this is slate). You can access your e-mail: 1) locally by logging onto the mail server and using a mail client program (e.g., "pine" or "elm"); or 2) remotely by using a POP/IMAP client program. With a POP client your e-mail is copied/retrieved from the mail server to a local computer. With an IMAP client your e-mail is accessible remotely, but is stored and managed on the server. (A subset of POP e-mail client programs also function as IMAP clients. The advantages and disadvantages of POP vs IMAP are discussed in the "Electronic Mail Quick Reference" guide. IMAP configuration is discussed in the "IMAP Quick Reference" guide.)
POP (Post Office Protocol) - The protocol that an e-mail server and client usewhen the client requests the downloading of e-mailmessages.
When you click or tap the "Send" button inside a web browser or e-mail client the program/browser/application connects to a mail server on the internet.A mail server (AKA: E-mail Server) is a server that receives emails from a clients computer and delivers them over the internet, or a network, to other mail servers or a clients computer.The server will most likely be a SMTP or POP3server.
No. The POP3 protocol is a network protocol. It is only concerned with the messages sent back and forth between the mail server and the mail client. The internal format of the mailbox files on the server is only of concern to the POP3 server software. It needs to be able to read the mailbox files so it can send the proper messages to the POP3 client in order to transfer the email. HTH, Gdunge
A "client", Any client accesses data and/or uses a system. "Server" software hosts the data to make it available to other computers or "clients". Thus in relation to email an example of a client would be Thunderbird, MS Outlook. Server software would be for example MS exchange server is the most commonly used.
Pretty much a client server network is known as a client server network.

For the internet; your web browser is the client and the web server is the server.
